FactoryTalk Historian Time Expressions
FactoryTalk Historian allows three types of time expressions: relative time,
combined time, and absolute time. These time expression types are defined
in the following table.
Expression Description Examples
Relative Time Relative time expressions specify a number of days, hours,
minutes, or seconds with either a leading plus sign or a
leading minus sign.
The reference time, or starting time, for the relative time
expression is the current time if both start and end times are
relative.
